Loss of Arthur Remanjon
We received this from Brian Slanger yesterday:

Words cannot express the loss of a tremendous human being
whose name was Arthur Remanjon.
Arthur was 'bigger than life' and as one person noted,
'you always knew when Arthur was in the room: he lit up
a room with his personality, depth, and warmth.'
Arthur was tragically killed on his motorcycle on the night
of Wednesday, September 2nd.
He was my closest friend, and he will so dearly missed.
I believe that he went happy. He was at the top of his
game with his career, was very much in love with his
new partner Margeux, and
never lacked for a love of life.
I do not know the details yet of the accident, which
apparently took place on University Parkway.
Arthur's Sister will be working together along with
his office manger Laurent, his primary 2nd shooter
Phil, his bookkeeper and myself to do what we can
to maintain his reputation as an outstanding photographer.
At this time, no funeral arrangements have been made, but I will
try to pass the word when I find out more details.
The photograph of Arthur on top of the red rocks of
the Southwest during a trip he and I took there to a WPPI conference
in some ways says it all.
Good bye my friend. I know you are happy.
